Building new computer. What parts do you suggest?

[taltos1]

Hello,
I have been out of the hardware "scene" for a while now and I want to build a new computer. I am looking to spend about $600-700 and would love some advice as to what hardware I should be looking at (CPU, mobo, Vid card, etc..)

Thank you!

 

[Wapp]

Price Check?

Post this in general hardware. You may also want to look through some posts there since this is a commom question.

This is not an ATOT T.

 

[jjones]

Definately go with a cpu, mobo and vid card. You might also want to get hard drive.

Yep, you are gonna need those. You'll also need a hard drive, RAM, case, PSU, and OS.

Good luck!

Edit >> Damn you jjones!

Also, a computer case to hold your stuff will be a good idea.

Maybe I should clarify a bit, I know what is needed and how to build it.
I am looking for specific suggestions, IE, AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000, ABIT KN9 SLI etc..

 

[KarmaPolice]

wow...this post rememinds that i haven't checked the general hardware forum since like 2004

 

[paulxcook]

You don't need a monitor anymore, btw. You might know that, I just don't know how long you've been out of the scene.

Here's a serious question. What are you going to use it for?

 

[Stumps]

386SX with 1mb ram and VGA should do the trick...I'd go for a 40mb Harddisk and 1.44mb floppy, nothing like future proofing.

 

[mercanucaribe]

Definately go with Core 2 Duo. I've been a loyal AMD customer until now

you wont get that here, all we have are snide comments, have you considered a keyboard mouse or monitor?

Hell yeah! You'll be top dog with 1mb or ram for quite a while; probably will not need to upgrade for at least two years.

Windows 3.1 should smoke on that system

 

[spaceman]

dual fdds and a turbo button.
2 button mouse minimum
extra VESA slots never hurt.

 

[FoBoT]

wrong forum

ohh all you going to get is snide comments here. sorry.

 

[Lalakai]

until your thread gets moved to better forum, try these sites Tom's and Anand's

 

[WildHorse]

Here's an illustrated tutorial, SEE ME

You'd need to take what good pointers you can from this, adapting to whatever uyou build.

Also, some community colleges give a class on how to build a PC.
